خطأ شائع:
Learners often confuse "infer" with "imply." "Infer" is what the listener or reader does (they reach a conclusion from what they hear or see). "Imply" is what the speaker or writer does (they suggest something without saying it directly). For example: "From his tone, I inferred that he was upset" (correct) vs. "From his tone, he implied that he was upset" (also correct, but the subject is now the speaker).

خطأ شائع:
Many style guides say it is better to use "imply" or "suggest" for this meaning and reserve "infer" for the listener’s action (sense 1). Some native speakers do use "infer" like this, but learners are usually safer saying "The results suggest that..." or "The data imply that..." in exams and formal writing.
